摘要
Since the introduction, femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery was believed to revolutionize cataract surgery. However, the judgment of clinical benefit was found to be far more complex than initially might have been thought. The aim of this review was to analyze the benefits and drawbacks of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery compared with traditional phacoemulsification cataract surgery.PubMed and the Web of Science were used to search the medical literature. The following keywords were searched in various combinations: femtosecond laser, femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery, phacoemulsification cataract surgery, FLACS.The benefits of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery include lower cumulated phacoemulsification time and endothelial cell loss, perfect centration of the capsulotomy, and opportunity to perform precise femtosecond-assisted arcuate keratotomy incisions. The major disadvantages of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery are high cost of the laser and the disposables for surgery, femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery-specific intraoperative capsular complications, as well as the risk of intraoperative miosis and the learning curve.Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery seems to be beneficial in some groups of patients, that is, with low baseline endothelial cell count, or those planning to receive multifocal intraocular lens. Nevertheless, having considered that the advantages of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery might not be clear in every routine case, it cannot be considered as cost-effective.
